    The timings do give that impression. Reverse at Taunton p2, then 80 minutes at signal E483. E483 gives access to the Minehead branch from the down slow. I would've thought going round the triangle at Plymouth would be easier.

    That’s not the case, Bill Monteith confirmed yesterday we are steam hauled all the way. The times for the trip to St Blazey for turning are now on RTT.

    Either way it gives we punters a leg stretch on what is a long day, the other water stops being in loops.

    On the return from Penzance to Taunton, RTT (at present) is giving just a 2 minute stop at Plymouth. It gives the impression that the tour will run from Penzance to Taunton without a water stop. 140+ miles? Very strange. <BJ>

    It shows 32 minutes from St Budeaux Junction to Plymouth, rather than the usual 6.

    Apparently the watering point at Plymouth is at the 'country' end of the platform so the loco will pull up at that and only pull into the station proper when it has finished. (So I am told)

    The Taunton / Norton F move is for coal and water.

    Looks like the steam returns from Newcastle to Carnforth at the end of day 7, with the Newcastle - York pathed as diesel on day 8.

    Interesting as the line is on embankment or viaduct for some distance back towards St Budeaux and there don't seem to be many access points either. My guess is the RRV access point at Keyham or hoses over the footbridge at Devonport.
    ( The viaduct to the west of Plymouth station crosses the delightfully named "Pennycomequick Road".)

    Cheers, Neil

    Quote from a driver (on Facebook):"there are 26 minutes allocated in the running time from PZ to Ply to facilitate a water stop on the END of platform 7 at Ply. It then pulls into the platform for a 2 minute stop before proceeding. It is exactly the same on the Royal Duchy's"

    Sounds like Tangmere may still be OOA and the Black Fives are being pressed to cover? Is there any news of 34067?
